Elijah, a fellow circulation assistant at the library recently got a transfer to a new job in the Museum Education department. His last day is in a week.

This morning, while sitting and talking with Maggie, Shirley comes up to me and says, "Congratulations on the new job!" I stare at her for a minute and then realize what she's talking about. "I'm not Elijah," I say. She looks at me intently for a minute, as if trying to realize what's going on. "Oh," she says, "well...you didn't want that job anyway, did you." I tell her no, and she smiles and walks off, saying, "Well wish him luck."

It's nice when someone who you've been working with for three years confuses you for someone else that you work with. It really makes you feel appreciated.
